The joy of being a bit John Lewis obsessed for shopping - looking for a new mattress, which isn't exciting but needed, is that the app often alerts you to new products, this being a Gift with Purchase. I do love a good gift with purchase and John Lewis have had some fabulous ones, it has become my reason (excuse) for emptying my basket of contents and then justifying the purchase with freebies!
This Gift with Purchase (GWP)* is a brilliant deal and one worthy of spending £100 to get your hands on the box, more so because it is exclusive to those of us who are John Lewis Members.
“The Refresh Box for Her also contains the perfect products for a pampering evening routine: a Susanne Kaufmann Moisturising Mask followed by REN Evercalm Overnight Recovery Balm for a double dose of moisture, and a good spritz of Neom’s Perfect Night's Sleep Pillow Mist to settle the mind before bed.”
This box has a little bit of everything and it is a fantastic way to try out some incredible brands, particularly if you want to try before you buy a full-sized product. Inside this box, as you can see is 13 products which are each given one of three categories - Restore, Reset or Revitalise and the products are as follows:
Restore
- SHISEIDO Vital Perfection Uplifting and Firming Cream, 15ml: - Said to have been inspired by the latest holistic research in skin science, this firming day cream has a silky, luxurious texture to give skin resilience and a brightened look
- MURAD Revitalixir Recovery Serum for Face & Eyes, 5ml: - I am a huge fan of Dr Muad and the products and this serum is the perfect serum to apply overnight to renew vibrancy and reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles, while niacinamide refines texture
- REN Clean Skincare Evercalm Overnight Recovery Balm, 5ml: This is one of my favourite products from REN. It is a night balm rich with olive, almond, borage and linseed oils to strengthen skin's protective barrier and alleviate signs of irritation from dryness
- SUSANNE KAUFMANN Moisturising Mask, 15ml: Perfect to pamper the skin once a week with this intensively moisturising mask for all skin types containing hyaluronic acid and plant-based precious oils
- OUAI Treatment Masque Tube, 30ml: - This restorative hair mask repairs damage in minutes, leaving strands incredibly soft and smooth after just one treatment
